Wow! It's been a long time!

I can't believe how long it's been since I last posted. Life has a way of going on whether you have time for it or not. So, what have I been doing? Well, I've been enjoying my cute little grandbaby Owen, who's leaving in 1 1/2 weeks for Equador (Waaah!)

I've also kept pretty busy at work. I started teaching some new classes and have discovered new challenges to overcome. One is having new students from Somalia who can't read or write anything (not even their name or address). I'm also looking forward to the end of their month long fast. They can't eat or drink anything during the day until 7:00 at night. As the weeks have gone on I see them getting more and more tired and weak. It's challenging for them to learn under these circumstances. So, I've been learning a lot about their Muslim culture and their dedication to it.

One of the most interesting parts of this new job is learning about so many new cultures. I teach students from Somalia, Vietnam, China, Eritrea, El Salvador, and Mexico.

I've also been busy writing and planning for the Primary Sacrament meeting Program. Our ward will be presenting it in October. I'm happy to have it written and now just need to figure out who will be performing which parts.

So, that's my "exciting" life pretty much in a "nut" shell. I wish I could write about my life in as interesting and cute of a way as my daughter Amy. So, my recommendation is that you take a peak at her blog because you'll get a kick out of it and it will put a smile on your face.
